A new Zuidberg front linkage and front PTO is now available to owners of John Deere 5M Series (Stage 5) tractors through Lynx Engineering’s worldwide dealer network. The system is compatible with the 5075, 5095, 5105, 5120, and 5130 models and can be retrofitted with ease.

Innovative Design

Renowned for precision engineering, Zuidberg has long been a leader in front linkage and PTO technology. The new system for the 5M Series reflects this pedigree, offering a sleek, compact profile combined with exceptional durability—engineered to meet the rigorous demands of today’s farming environment.

A cast top plate and fixed side plates ensure no compromise on steering angle, while the short attachment maintains full ground clearance. Tractor-specific connectors deliver a highly precise fit, making installation straightforward and efficient.

The linkage is designed to accommodate a broad range of applications and comes pre-configured for auxiliary hydraulic connections, making it ideal for operating front-mounted implements.

The system offers flexible operation with single-acting, double-acting, and transport positions available via the standard multi-valve. The removable linkage arms feature settings for transport, fixed, and oscillating positions. Each linkage pack includes a top link, hitch balls, and a towing hook.

Leaders in PTO Technology

Farmers around the globe trust Zuidberg not only for lifting and carrying, but also for delivering reliable power to front-mounted implements.

The Zuidberg 1000rpm CCW front PTO system is an ideal companion for the John Deere 5M Series. It features the innovative ‘PACE’ controller, which allows for infinitely adjustable ramp-up times—ensuring smooth and controlled implement start-up. The PTO incorporates oil-immersed clutch plates for extended service life and includes an output shaft that can be rotated over 60 degrees, simplifying implement connection. The shaft remains stationary when not in use.

Every PTO system is supplied with a protective cover for the PTO stump, and a full PTO shaft safety guard is strongly recommended for operator protection.
